   5 years ago in  Nearly two-thirds of Uber customers don’t tip their drivers, study says

  I feel kinda bad that Uber and Lyft even screwed over the taxi industry by starting this whole no tipping culture.

   5 years ago in  New York Times reporter Mike Issac wrote a book Super Pumped The Battle For Uber coming out tomorrow

  Why does this sound familiar... Has there been press on this in the past? I thought I read about some reporters book that was pretty lousy actually as the writer didnt really understand everything to the fullest.

   5 years ago in  Using Uber as a disabled passenger (but not wheelchair user).

  This is a really interesting perspective. I don't believe there is anyway you can mark this in your app but perhaps there should be. 

  How often does the driver not stop where you drop your pin? They really should drive to the exact pick up spot so this is a bit surprising that you get multiple drivers who do not follow the pick up rules. If you notice you driver is stopped on the map a little ways away, I would call them and explain your situation.

   5 years ago in  What tax forms do Uber/Lyft send you at the end of the year? (Newbie here)

  I think a 1099k if you do over 20k in passenger rides.  1099misc if you get over $600 in non passenger money.  Otherwise, you will just get your tax year summary.

   5 years ago in  As a Driver, will you buy Uber or Lyft stock when it becomes available?

  Depends on plenty of things: where an IPO would price, how much leverage would be added to the structure (including the loans from March and the $1.5bn deal currently in the market), and macro conditions at the time of the offering.

   6 years ago in  Has anyone ever shamed your job as a rideshare driver for Uber and Lyft?

  OMG, if someone asked me "Is this what you studied in college". I would just go "yes, I went to the Uber school for Drivers" to see their reaction.

   6 years ago in  RideGuru Rideshare Survey Results 2018; Forget Tinder and LinkedIn. Ridesharing is the new social centre.

  50% of people think the rideshare company should be paying drivers more but they do not want to pay more for their ride... riders are so frustrating.
